Mountain Stol above Kobarid

With its setting of high Julian Alps peaks, Kobarid's Stol is a paragliding pilot’s paradise.

Its over 20 km long panoramic ridge tops provide extraordinary opportunities for long cross-country flights and large-scale competitions.

As the highest takeoff in the Soca Valley, Kobariski Stol is often the only take-off above the inversion layer, providing opportunities for thermal flying.

Weather conditions:

The ideal conditions are with a very weak general N or NE wind for cross-country flights and a weak SW wind for local flying. With the general SW wind and thermals, the wind usually intensifies quickly.

Description of take-off:A meadow in the middle of a vast, grassy mountain slope.
